This paper is concerned with structural safety of tension leg platforms (TLPs) in extreme storm waves. Based upon selected statistical models for the distributions of water surface elevation during a storm, mean storm wind velocity, structural strength and storm arrivals, a reliability model for the mooring system of the TLP is presented. It is used to assess the probability of progressive failure of the legs at each corner and the reliability of the mooring system during the service life of the platform as a function of various design parameters. 相似文献

Toll optimization in a large‐scale dynamic traffic network is typically characterized by an expensive‐to‐evaluate objective function. In this paper, we propose two toll‐level problems (TLPs) integrated with a large‐scale simulation‐based dynamic traffic assignment model of Melbourne, Australia. The first TLP aims to control the pricing zone (PZ) through a time‐varying joint distance and delay toll such that the network fundamental diagram (NFD) of the PZ does not enter the congested regime. The second TLP is built upon the first TLP by further considering the minimization of the heterogeneity of congestion distribution in the PZ. To solve the two TLPs, a computationally efficient surrogate‐based optimization method, that is, regressing kriging with expected improvement sampling, is applied to approximate the simulation input–output mapping, which can balance well between local exploitation and global exploration. Results show that the two optimal TLP solutions reduce the average travel time in the PZ (entire network) by 29.5% (1.4%) and 21.6% (2.5%), respectively. Reducing the heterogeneity of congestion distribution achieves higher network flows in the PZ and a lower average travel time or a larger total travel time saving in the entire network. 相似文献

A mathematical model is presented of the coupled dynamics of a tensioned buoyant surface platform and the lateral dynamics of its taut mooring tethers. A finite element model of the lateral mooring tether dynamics is extended to take account of nonlinear square law fluid damping by a simple global ‘whole tether’ linearization and an alternative computationally more expensive ‘element-by-element’ linearization scheme. The resultant finite element model is combined with the surface platform dynamic analysis and the coupled dynamic model is used to investigate the effects of water depth, surface platform mass and tether mass per unit length on the tether displacements and bending stresses as well as the resultant surface platform displacements. The results show that the bending stresses induced in the tethers due to their dynamic motions are quite small and that the tether dynamics only affect the motion response of the platform appreciably if the tethers are long (1500 m or more), have a large mass per unit length and have a relatively low tension; or if the platform mass is relatively small. It was also found that the additional computing time required for the local ‘element-by-element’ equivalent linearization was not matched by the small improvement in accuracy obtained over the global ‘whole tether’ technique. 相似文献

In this paper, we tackle a new dynamic problem of a large floating platform in a heaving harmonic motion due to 9000 performers or people simultaneously jumping in mass events. The objective is to estimate the heaving response of the floating structure so as to establish whether the participants will be at ease during their performances. By assuming the platform as a rigid body, the added mass and the radiation damping coefficient are first estimated. This requires the evaluation of a three-dimensional velocity potential governed by Laplace’s equation. The Green's function method was used to solve the boundary value problem. Based on the estimated added mass and radiation damping, we employ the finite element software NASTRAN to solve the transient dynamic problem for the displacement and acceleration responses. The impulse force used for the transient problem is based on experimentally obtained ground reaction force (due to a human jumping) as measured by using a force plate. As the floating platform may be dismantled and reconfigured into other shapes, two different sizes of floating platform as well as different number of jumps were considered in this study. 相似文献

最小地震剪力系数是隔震结构设计的关键控制因素之一。对等效周期为2~6s的单质点隔震体系在远场地震动(FF地震动)、近场含脉冲地震动(NFWP地震动)和近场不含脉冲地震动(NFWNP地震动)作用下的剪力系数分布特点进行分析,并将其与规程中有关最小地震剪力系数的相关规定进行对比,探寻在不同抗震设防烈度下,不能满足最小地震剪力系数的隔震结构的等效周期范围。以位于我国抗震设防烈度8度区的某隔震结构为例,采用三种不同的设计地震剪力取值方法,设计了6种不同的结构模型。通过模型的弹塑性时程分析,比较了地震动的近远场特性对各模型抗震性能的影响,及其在罕遇地震作用下的性能差异。分析结果表明:地震动的近远场特性对隔震结构的楼层设计剪力影响较大;对不满足最小地震剪力系数要求的隔震结构,采用放大设计地震剪力使其承载力满足最小地震剪力系数的方法,能够有效提高其抗震能力;不考虑最小地震剪力系数对结构设计地震剪力的限制,采用结构的实际地震剪力需求进行设计的隔震结构能够满足地震作用下的承载力和层间位移限值要求。 相似文献

在以往的大地震中输电塔的破坏时有发生,输电塔倒塌的部分原因是由于相邻塔在地震动多点激励下异相振动产生的导线拉力引起。本文考虑导线的几何非线性,建立了输电塔-线体系三维有限元模型,分析了非平整场地上的结构体系在地震动纵向多点激励下的反应。基于经验相干函数和修正金井清功率谱密度函数模型模拟了空间变化地震动,分别考察了地震波视波速和相干损失对于结构体系地震反应的影响。结果表明,假定地震动一致激励不能准确评估结构体系的反应,地震动空间变化效应放大了输电塔和导线的地震反应,在强震作用下,忽略地震动的空间变化会严重低估输电塔-线体系的反应。 相似文献

The effects of wind loads on the static profile and force transmission efficiency of a tether tied to a kite-like aerodynamic body has been theoretically examined. Two important parameters which characterize the behavior of the tether have been obtained. These are the tether weight parameter, which is the ratio of tether weight to the tether tension, and the wind load parameter, which is the ratio of wind load to the tether weight. Results obtained from five different tether models (straight line, catenary, constant velocity, variable velocity and maximum stress) have been compared to determine regions of applicability of these models in terms of the above two parameters. 相似文献

In the recent years, offshore oil drilling and production is moving towards ultra-deep Arctic region which demands an adaptable structural form. Apart from the environmental loads, offshore structures in Arctic region will also be subjected to impact forces arising due to ship platform collision. Such loads may endanger the safety of the platform due to the combined effect of reduced temperature and impact forces on the material and geometric properties of the structure. Thus, there is a need to understand the behaviour of offshore structures under impact forces in low-temperature conditions. Offshore Triceratops is one of the recent new-generation compliant platforms proved to be suitable for ultra-deepwater applications. The main aim of this study is to assess the response of triceratops under impact forces in Arctic environment numerically. As the buoyant legs of triceratops are susceptible to impact forces arising from ship platform collision, the numerical model of a buoyant leg is developed using Ansys explicit dynamics solver. The impact analyses is then carried out with rectangular box-shaped indenter representing the stem of a ship, under both ambient conditions and Arctic temperature (− 60 °C) and the local response of the platform is studied through force deformation curves and stress contours. In order to study the global response of the platform, the numerical model of triceratops is developed in Ansys Aqwa solver and analysed under the action of impact load time history obtained from explicit analysis of buoyant leg. The impact load on the buoyant leg resulted in the continuous periodic vibration of the platform. Furthermore, parametric studies were also carried out to investigate the effect of indenter velocity, size, and location on the impact response of triceratops under Arctic temperature, and the results are discussed. 相似文献

Stability of trussed cantilever with laterally supported tension‐chord's nodes and a stiff compression‐chord clamped at the cantilever's supported end. For trussed cantilever with the laterally supported tension‐chord's nodes and a stiff compression‐chord which is laterally clamped at the cantilever's supported end simple formulas are derived for the beam's critical load and the corresponding compression‐chord's maximal longitudinal force. Three load cases will be discussed, namely a system of nodal forces equivalent to a uniform load, a concentrated load at the free end of beam and the combination of these two load cases. The investigation is performed firstly on the basis of the discrete structure system applying the approximate method of splitting the load into partial loads and then on the basis of the equivalent continuous model with “smeared” geometrical stiffness‐ and load data. The paper intends to contribute to an easy design and an economic analysis of the structure. Besides, it shows that even in time of involved computer analyses simple approximate methods yield valuable services. 相似文献

CCTV新台址主楼采用支撑筒体结构体系,外筒蝶形节点以及柱脚节点是其中的关键性节点。本文通过对蝶型节点的有限元分析,提出此类节点简化的设计方法,保证了在支撑构件屈服时,蝶型节点能基本保持弹性,满足"强节点、弱杆件"的结构抗震要求。通过与节点模型试验结果的比较,验证了这一设计方法的正确性。由于塔楼双向倾斜,且在结构高位有连体结构,造成部分外筒SRC柱柱脚在竖向荷载作用下出现拉力,与水平荷载作用下拉力叠加后进一步增大。由于水平荷载作用方向的不确定性,柱脚也可能承受较大的压力。根据柱脚受拉程度的不同,结构设计中分别采用了露出外包式、埋入式两种不同的柱脚构造形式,并在外包式柱脚中采用了高强预应力锚栓来平衡柱脚的拉力。 相似文献

This paper describes a three-dimensional (3D) numerical analysis of a test embankment on geotextile-encased columns (GECs), in comparison with two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric and plane strain analyses. The 3D numerical analysis was performed considering a rectangular strip under the embankment centerline. The 2D analysis was also carried out using axisymmetric unit cell and plane strain approaches. Numerical results indicated that the adopted 3D strip model represented well the measured deformations and pore pressure evolution during embankment construction and post-contraction periods. Unlike the unit cell model, both plane strain and 3D analyses could properly determine the settlement profile along the embankment base as well as the profile of the horizontal soil deformation beneath the embankment toes. The plane strain analysis, however, was not able to compute the geotextile ring force which might be simply calculated using the axisymmetric unit cell approach. The paper also showed that, due to horizontal boundary fixities applied to the embankment borders, the unit cell model clearly underestimated the tension developed in the basal geogrid. 相似文献

Using linear membrane theory, the contours and size of reinforcements required for spherical inflatable membranes to carry tangential, normal and oblique concentrated forces, by means of a tension field and without wrinkling, is considered. Load limits for such wrinkle-free behaviour of this class of structure are established. In the second part of the paper, nonlinear membrane equations, written with respect to the deformed configuration, are used to establish the wrinkled deformation field of spherical inflatables subjected to axisymmetric normal concentrated forces without the use of reinforcements. The ponding problem for such membranes, a possible mode of failure when concentrated forces are applied in the presence of an accumulating ponding medium, is defined and the conditions for a safe ponding process specified in terms of membrane geometry, internal inflation pressure and density of the ponding medium. 相似文献
